Marlo, an over-extended mother of three, accepts the gift of a night nanny to help care for her newborn.
“I think I have always sort of cultivated a flowery writing style. I’ve always sort of overwritten in every genre that I’ve attempted. I went to college and took a couple of writing classes and I remember my teachers were always incredibly encouraging. But it was inevitable to get the criticism: ‘Take it down a notch!’ But the nice thing about screenwriting is that you don’t really have to.” —Written by Diablo Cody
“When you’re young, you want to make every kind of film: musicals, westerns, horror. Slowly you begin to hear your own voice. I hope people receive what I do as small, personal films that are somewhat contrarian about their main characters.” —Directed by Jason Reitman
